Tatuaje 10th Anniversary Belle Encre is a beautiful and elegant stick with a figurado shape released in 2013 to celebrate the brand's 10 years of existence. The wrapper is Ecuadorian with fillers and binder from Nicaragua. An earthy, delicious smoke reminiscent of black coffee.

Cigar Manufacturer

My Father Cigars

My Father Cigars manufactures handmade premium cigars in Miami and Esteli, Nicaragua. The company is owned and operated by Don Pepin, his son Jaime, and his daughter Janny. The "Garcia Family Industrial Park" located in Esteli, Nicaragua is a seven-acre complex with 9 buildings, over 1900 employees, where the Garcias supervise their cigar production from the tobacco field to the roller's table. Their Miami headquarters house 12 rollers that make all of the company's "handmade in Miami" brands.

Cigar Wrapper

Ecuadorian Habano

The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.Ecuadorian Habano wrapper has become one of the most used cigar wrappers in the market. Grown primarily by the Oliva family, this tobacco originated from Habano or H2000 seeds brought to Ecuador from Cuba. This leaf is rich and flavorful thanks to the temperate climate of Ecuador and the quality of its volcanic soil.

Cigar Binder

Nicaragua

The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together. Nicaraguan cigar binders are produced mainly in Esteli and Jalapa, both lands with volcanic soil and excellent climate for growing tobacco. Binders grown in Jalapa have sweet undertones. Corojo, Habana2000, Criollo, and Maduro binders are all produced in Nicaragua.

Cigar Filler

Nicaragua

Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.

A well made nice looking cigar. Started out with heavy notes of pepper and strong coffee for the 1st 1/3 then got smoother and very tasty as more flavor of nuts and coffee came in. Unfortunately this only lasted a short while and then it went back to the strong black pepper harshness. I've had much better cigars from Tatuaje with abundance of flavors. This one only had this a very brief time.

The Tatuaje brand has yet to disappoint me, and the Belle Encre continues that track record. As a matter of fact, this may very well be my favorite overall stick by the company. Upon lighting, you know what you're in for: a medium to full strength profile, with a nice underlying note of cocoa lasting from the first puff to the last. After a few minutes, some notes of leather introduce themselves and compliment the chocolaty finish nicely. The perfecto shape adds a nice touch, and as a cool bonus, the cigar is rolled in Miami! Definitely one to keep in the humidor at all times.

I gave this cigar 2 stars for appearance and 5 stars for everything else. I hate the look of the perfecto and this is no exception. The band is ridiculously boring. But the draw and burn was flawless. The smoke output was nothing short of a locomotive and the taste was just out of this world. I've smoke a lot of Tatuaje cigars and could never understand the fuss, but this thing rocks. Just goes to show you, you can't judge a book by its cover. Outstanding taste all the way through to the end. It's rare to find a cigar that tastes this good from start to finish. I will be buying more as soon as i hit send on this review.

Besides this cigar catching the eye due to its unique shape and appearance -- the flavor is equally intriguing! This med to full body smoke is delicious from beginning to end -- and I mean very very end! This cigar smoke is so cool you can actually smoke it to the nub without getting hot! The flavor is extremely smooth -- rich earthiness flavors -- sweet and peppery at same time. The ash was also perfect from beginning to end! A must try smoke.
